Release/all

Today's release was mostly lots of bugfixes but also included:

• Shields are now much better at blocking status damage
• Damage numbers can be toggled on via the options menu (press Esc)

We will be doing a release tonight that is mostly bug fixes and a lot of behind the scenes stuff but also includes the following:

• Combat no longer has numbers. When monsters are hit you will now see a visual indicator for power and effectiveness:
• A dull gray flash means that the monster is highly resistant to the damage type
• A bright blue damage flash means the monster has average resistance to the damage type
• A golden flash with stars means the monster is weak to the damage type
• The size of the flash tells you about how hard you actually hit the monster. The more health you remove, the bigger the flash.

• The penalty for falling in combat is now illustrated via heat falling out of you. If you revive, you will see it return to you, but if you quit, the heat fizzles out.

• We've streamlined the Adventure Board to make it easier to join or start a party.
• Now when frozen, you will receive damage if your freeze block is broken early, instead of if the freeze time runs out
• Hearts will now disappear after 90 seconds

Bugfixes:

• Fixed Mecha Knights from spawning outside walls/doors
• Fixed Quicksilvers from spawning in Poison levels instead of Toxigels
• Fixed various broken Clockwork levels
• Fixes and more rebalancing to various equipment

We did a small bugfix release tonight that included mostly behind the scenes stuff. Though there was some fancy new loading screen art added!

We did a release tonight that contained the following:

• Jelly and Demo series gear now has fancy new art!
• Fixed a couple armor stat errors (helms that were missing penalties the matching armors had, and so on).
• Added a few new inventory icons for materials and armor.
• Fixed Trojan immunity to status damage
• You can now toggle off player names in the options menu
• Fixed a bug where gold keys could land behind gold doors

We will be performing a release shortly that includes some preparation for our Power Surge Weekend.

Also included:

• There were a few adjustments to phantoms that should make them more forgiving in tier 1 and 2.
• Special bonuses on armor and helms were increased on 5* items.
• Status resistances on armor and helms have been generally increased.

We will be performing a release tonight that includes the following:

• We've simplified the columns in the Arcade. Instead of giving you a read out of mineral ratios they now show the current theme of each stratum to give you a quick 'at a glance' look at what is being built.
• Lieutenant Feron has shown up for duty in the Arcade and will provide an overview of your mission as well as present new players with the objective of reaching the first terminal in tier 1.
• Chief Geo Knight Wegner has reported for duty and relieved the arcade assistant. Wegner will give you a basic overview of how minerals work and (soon) an advanced lesson on gate creation.
• Required ingredients are now shown on recipe tooltips.
• The damage values shown when attacking monsters will vary based on if the special attack types are effective against that monster (bigger numbers if the monster is weak to the damage, smaller if they are resistant)
• Fixed a bug where damage bonuses were not showing up on armor/helmet/trinket tooltips
• More rooms and monsters were added to the deconstruction zone as well as some refinement to the size of the rooms

A pretty small release tonight in prep for something very big tomorrow (what could it be????)

• Rocket puppy rockets should now home on their targets.
• Mecha knight bodyguards will now be sure to catch up with you.
• Collision on shard bomb bullets has been fixed
• The gate building recipes were altered a bit. We apologize if this resulted in themes being switched on in progress gates. The good news is that now everything is equally balanced.
• Shops now have limited stock for many items (typically over 1*).
• Lastly, we branded the game with our new official logo!

We will be doing a release tonight that includes the following:

• Armor and helm depth scaling is now much balanced. You should see much better results by using tier appropriate armors in tier 2 and 3
• Hearts are now locally available to each player in a party. If a heart drops, every part member will have the opportunity to get it.
• Health respawn pads now heal you as you sit on them.
• Your character panel should now display your total combined stats for each configuration of gear and weapons.
• Trojans will hurt you again.. Vacation's over.
• Spikes no longer damage monsters.
• Poison no longer inverts monster regen, it simply prevents it from occurring. If a monster is healed by another while poisoned, it will still take damage.
• Red Rovers no longer damage other monsters
• Bullets should no longer go through blocks.
• New rooms for deconstruction zone and devilish drudgery levels
• Kleptolisks now appear in treasure vaults - hold on to your loot!
• Fixed Trojan Ghost Block bug in firestorm citadel smoldering steps
• Phantoms in Tier 1 no longer curse you
• Many items recipes have had their ingredients updated to add in the new status-based items and balance out the occurrence of some of the higher end materials

There are some pretty significant item and stat related changes as you can see, so please give us good feedback on game difficulty in each tier and the current feel of combat. Thanks!

We will be doing a release tonight that includes the following:

• When hit while charging any weapon you will no longer have your charge broken. Instead your charge meter will be set back a fixed percentage, merely slowing you down.
• Fewer status type monsters will appear in all Tier 1 levels. For example, in a fire themed level, when monsters spawn there will be a selection of normal and fire monsters. This was done in order to reduce the difficulty of Tier 1.
• Translation errors on some levels have been fixed.
• Lots of new armor art has been completed:
  • Wolver Coat & Wolver Cap
  • Dusker Coat & Dusker Cap
  • Ash Tail Coat & Ash Tail Cap
  • Vog Cub Coat & Vog Cub Cap
  • Skolver Coat & Skolver Cap
  • Volcanic Salamander Suit & Volcanic Salamander Mask
  • Virulisk Suit & Virulisk Mask
  • Deadly Virulisk Suit & Deadly Virulisk Mask
• Lots of other minor bug fixes.

We will be doing a release tonight that includes the following:

• Monster defense has been adjusted across the board. As seen in this thread: http://forums.spiralknights.com/node/1488

Monsters are now weak, neutral to and highly resistant to one of each of the special damage types. You should see much better damage output against the neutral defense than before.

• Higher tier items in lower tiers will always perform a little better than tier appropriate items.
• Shields can no longer block status damage as it happens. For example, if you are on fire, blocking with your shield will not block the damage you receive from the fire.
• Fixed dual damage type damage imbalance.
• Shields are now more resistant to status-based damage. Use those shields!
• Characters will now receive emails from Spiral HQ as they progress through the game. Currently this can be seen upon arriving to the Rescue Camp, Haven Tier 2 and 3 for the first time. In some cases, a new 'mist tank' is awarded that refills your mist meter.
• Phantoms now stalk the graveyards! Graveyards are now finally the scary, terrible place they were always intended to be, with phantoms stalking players over time. Phantoms act like players in their attack style, can travel through walls, across chasms and can never truly die. They are bad news.
• You can now change your equipment at clockwork terminals.
• As always, lots of bugs were squashed.

Let us know what you think in the forums!

We will be doing a (mostly) bugfix release that among other things includes:

• Bullets will no longer pass through force barriers
• Mecha Knight bodyguards will warp to party pads

Some non-bugs that were also included:

• Added an auto sell button to the mineral deposit box. Auto sell will sell all of your minerals across multiple stratums at whatever is the current best price for each mineral.
• Monster defenses for special damage types that they were previously 'resistant' to (as seen in this thread: http://forums.spiralknights.com/node/1488) have been reduced.

Greetings! We are doing a release tonight that brings with it lots of changes, so please read the following notes.

**Many of these new features are still in development! Please be aware that there may be missing components to new content, lack of information, etc.**

There is an all new gate creation system

This new system offers much greater transparency into gate creation and how minerals generate levels. When depositing minerals, players will have the option of depositing them into different groupings of floors, called 'stratums.' There are two stratums in every tier. The 'default stratum' is always preselected upon opening the deposit interface.

You are now paid in crowns for every mineral deposited. However, opting not to deposit in the default stratum will probably cost crowns per mineral for the privilege of depositing into deeper stratums earlier.

You can also 'boost' the payouts mineral types in stratums to encourage other players to deposit the minerals you want.

Stratums have themes

As you deposit minerals into each stratum, you will see the 'theme' of that stratum change. The theme dictates what kinds of levels will be created.

Many new levels and monsters have been created to support these themes. They will be further fleshed out as we continue to develop this new feature.

Status conditions have changed

Status conditions are undergoing some changes. Here's what's different so far:

• Freeze now lasts for a long time and breaks on a single hit. It is intended for crowd control on monsters. If the ice breaks naturally, the target receives some damage.
• Shock now prevents monster movement and damages other targets around it on spasm intervals.
• Fire damage has been decreased.
• Poison now damages monsters when they are healed and gives an attack and defense debuff.
• A bug with curse has been fixed

An important notice regarding exploits:

Over the weekend, a bug was discovered that some players exploited. Those players have been banned.

Please remember that the purpose of this preview event is to give us good feedback and help us improve Spiral Knights. Helping us discover exploits and reporting them- good. Discovering exploits and using them to damage the game- bad.

Other additions:

• Some monster defenses have been altered.
• Loading screen images have been added
• The core approach terminal has changed
• As always, lots of random bug fixes

A very small release today with all under the hood stuff save for adding some stats in the tooltip for shields.

We did a small bugfix release today that included allowing chat at the elevator advancement screen and some balance to sword stats.

A small bugfix release where a few new features have crept in:

• The item tooltip bonus pills should once again be showing the correct information
• You can now make Credit Card based energy purchases securely from within the game without needing to head to the Spiral Knights Energy Depot website
• Successful trades will now show the full trade contents in your chat
• If you're logged into the website and start the game from your browser, you will log into the game automatically
• You can attach your Facebook account to your game account and authenticate using your Facebook login

We will be doing a release today that includes the following:

• The Royal Jelly has been made a bit more difficult. Please let us know what you think in the feedback thread: http://forums.spiralknights.com/node/1293
• Many weapons have received wonderful new art! (I'm partial to the Cold Iron Vanquisher)
• Lots of bugfixes, as always.

Happy Valentines Day!

We did a release today that included the following:

• We added a new Uplink interface that has three tabs:
  • The News tab will let you know what's going on in the game and display special promotional offers.
  • The Mail tab allows users to send mail to each other. Please give us your feedback! More features, including the ability to send items are on the way.
  • The Invite tab allows you to manage and send invitations to join Spiral Knights.
• The Royal Jelly Palace is coming! The next gate created should contain a slimy palace that is home to a Royal Jelly, royalty within the slime family and our newest boss.
• Tokens are live! All bosses now drop special tokens that can be exchanged at the token trader in every town for special items. Get some!
• As always, plenty of bug squashing.

Updates on other features NOT included in this update:

• The Core is taking longer than expected. We want it to be really special so we're holding off on it for this release.
• We're currently working on a whole new way to build gates that will offer much greater transparency into the underlying system as well as create a more varied overall experience. Some things are in the works that should make the Clockworks a much more interesting place for everyone. Stay tuned!

We're individually shutting down and restarting the server peers in order to upgrade their operating systems. You will be able to continue playing, but you'll be moved between peers as they're brought offline. The process will be completed shortly.

We're doing a quick web server maintenance today January 28th from 3:30pm to 4pm Pacific Time.

This will affect the forum here, the Wiki and the website. But not the game itself.

Sorry for the inconvenience folks!

We have added another payment option: Mobile Phones.

How to use: Enter your mobile phone number, reply Y to the text message you receive to confirm, and you'll get the Energy delivered to your account!

Note: Boku's Paymo service cover a large amount of countries and phone service providers, but not all are covered. Phone service networks charge fees for these kinds of services, so the cost per Energy will be different from other payment options.

Problems?: If you run into problems with this please see Paymo's Support Center for standard problems. And if you believe the issue is on our side please contact us via billing@spiralknights.com.

We will be doing a small bugfix release today that, among other things, includes a peering issue and the HUD locking feature.

We will be doing a release today that includes the following:

• You can now lock your HUD in dungeons by clicking the small lock icon in the top left corner of the HUD or by pressing the tilde key. In order to unlock it, you must press the tilde key. This key can be remapped in the options menu.
• If kicked from a party you will now carry on solo rather than be booted back to Haven. This feature is still undergoing testing, so please be on the look out for bugs and report them if found.
• Many shields have undergone a visual makeover and now have unique art! More on the way.
• Many of the custom levels have undergone a few tweaks to balance difficulty and include a few new components like energy doors.
• As always, lots of bug fixes.

We did a small release today that fixed a few bugs and added some polish to the social panel and market interface.

We will be doing a release tonight that includes the following:

• The social panel has received a major upgrade, and now has a host of new features including online and offline friend and guild tracking and click tells.
• The vendor interface has also been upgraded and now resembles an arsenal. It should be much easier to use.
• The Arcade Assistant now has handy images to help explain the Arcade. Let us know what you think!

• As always, lots of other misc. bugs.

Coming soon:

Small one - We fixed the bug with the instant button for selling energy.

We will be doing a release today that includes the following things:

• As mentioned in my previous post, the gate passes required to access more advanced tiers from the Haven Arcade have been removed. A player will still need the appropriate Tier Clearance to access each tier from Haven, but no longer needs to work their way through each tier of each gate from Haven. The current Gate Pass table in the Progress tab of the character panel will remain, albeit slightly tweaked as a handy tracker of tiers you have yet to explore on each gate.
• Danger Rooms are back! Every Clockwork Tunnels level has a chance of spawning an optional danger room, identified by the red skull recon module located in front of them. A Danger room locks a party inside and forces them to survive in order to gain access back out, but if victorious, the party is rewarded with a lots of treasure. Danger rooms are tough, please enter at your own risk.
• Treasure blocks now contain a lot more treasure variety, including many more 'whole item' loot drops like weapons and gear.
• The exchange has undergone a few changes to it's UI that should make things a little clearer for everyone.
• The holidays have officially left the Clockworks, with holiday hats removed from treasure blocks and monsters.

• A new merchant, the Spiral Quartermaster is located in the southwest end of the Haven Bazaar. The Spiral QM reliably sells special Spiral gear, weapons and recipes with 'average' stats that allow you to be competitive in each tier. The Spiral QM will become much more prominent in the future as we direct your experience more towards acquiring the right gear to compete in each tier.
• Coliseum events now reward the weekly top player (as seen from the leaderboards) a special costume reward. For Super Brawl, it is a fantastic golden crown! The winner is chosen Mondays at midnight PST (i.e. late Sunday night). The reward costume expires after 7 days, when a new winner is chosen.
• Firestorm Citadel has new content in its levels. Look out for terrible siege wheels that will flatten you if you're not careful! More developments on these levels will be coming soon. Use the balls of water to extinguish the columns of shadow fire!
• 5 Star items are finally here! You can find recipes to build them from traveling merchants deep within the Clockworks or as rare 'drops' in your daily recipe stock from the Haven recipe vendor.
• Traveling merchants in Clockwork Terminals have many new recipes that can show up.
• Elevators now have handy buttons allowing you to return to Haven at any time and cash out your heat or continue down into the depths of the Clockworks. Parties can now split up at any time, allowing players to end their experience when they please.

We will also be updating trinkets and added new ones. Stay tuned and thanks for playing!

We're going to do a release tonight, here's what it will include:

New Vitapods!

Vitapods have changed in this release. You will now pick up a vitapod, and it will show up on your health bar. You can only hold one vitapod at a time, however the vitapods will get larger the further you are from town. You will be able to swap out your current vitapod for a new one you found in the level. Also, once you've left the lobby, any vitapods you pick up will only increase your maximum health, but not your current health, so you will need to find some hearts to fill yourself up the rest of the way.

Just as before you can wait to receive half the life from another player or wait to have your party (hopefully) make it to the next floor. But now you can also revive yourself and other with energy. The cost to revive increases each time you die but is reset upon reaching any town.
• Some new items have been added to treasure block drop tables.

We will also again be inviting more players to the game this evening. Please give them a warm welcome!

We've just put out a new release to fix two major bugs in the game.

1. Shops should now display the correct prices for all items
2. There should no longer be a trade bug where you can duplicate items

Hello!

We will be updating the game today and I wanted to give you a heads up on a few changes:

• The prices of all items are in a state of change. We're working hard to determine the best prices for everything.
• '0 Star' items now exist. These items will be purchasable in the Rescue Camp.
• As a result of introducing a new level of gear, some low level gear has moved up or down in star value. This will affect their heat levels in some cases. You may have lost or gained heat levels but your total heat invested in the weapon has remained the same.

Lastly, we will be introducing many more new players to the game in the very near future. Please give them a warm welcome!
